I recently got a new computer, with a brand new license of Civil 3d 2012. I am still having issues with viewports. When I create a polygonal viewport, it separates the polyline and the viewport if I click on them individually. It must be a setting somewhere?

I am unable to replicate the issue in C3D 2012 or C3D 2013. Every time I create a polygonal viewport and select it I get both a polyline and a viewport in Properties Palette though the vewport is the default object visible in the Properties Palette unless I use Selection Cycling to choose polyline.

^^^^^^^^^^^^ I agree with the above.
Also -- I didn't test it, but if either the polyline or viewport is on layer "Defpoints" and layer 0 is frozen - there is no telling what sort of side effects may occur.

I have attached a test drawing with a polygonal viewport in it. What I have found is that as long as I have cycle selection on, I can choose the viewport. But the viewport and the polygon border remain separate.
If you all say that's the way it is, no problem. I can work with it. But it just seems odd to me that they would be separate.
